60% Tempranillo
*
40% Cabernet Sauvignon
ALCOHOL VOLUME: 13 %
SERVING TEMPERATURE: 14-16 ºC
DESCRIPTION:
Intense black cherry red. Very intense nose, roast aroma with hints of clove, liquorice and coffee. Slight vanilla taste. A smooth attack, with structure and blended tannins. Incredibly aromatic on the palate, expressive and fresh. In the mouth it offers three times the intensity than it does in the nose. Easy and nice finish. A very delicate and pleasant wine.
GASTRONOMY:
Ideal with Iberian cold meats and loin carpaccio with non-oily fish and free-range poultry…
WINEMAKING PROCESS:
The grapes come from soils that are predominantly calcareous, with parts that are sandy with pebbles. This wine combines musts from various types of quite prolonged maceration, and also from cold pre-fermentation macerations. The wine has spent twelve months in new oak barrels to bring out the tannins and emphasise its light touches of vanilla.
